. DEATH TO THE ARISTOS .


I am sad. I don’t know what’s going on, I am hungry, my stomach growls. I have been in this cell with 50 people for the past two days. There is only 7 of us left, I am with my mum and she is crying and hugging me. She doesn’t want to let go, its cold and foggy. I see the guards come in, they try to grab me and pull me away from my mum but they are to strong and they tare us apart. I am the last one left. They grab me and throw me onto a horse and carriage they tie my hands together, I can fell the splinters of the wood rubbing against me and the coldness of the bloodstains on the rope. I go underneath the arch to the town square, I can see people yelling and screaming at me. I am shaking and I feel it becoming colder by the second, the sky is getting darker, the tall brick walls are getting closing in on me, I am scared and still don’t know what’s happening, I can feel the end getting closer.

I can smell the stench of blood, I past a wooden crate. It’s my mums head and body in two pieces. I now realize what happening, I get pulled out of the crate. I squirm and try to get free from the two guards walk me up the stairs. Its to late, I get thrown on the guillotine. They strap my head down, I hear screaming and yelling. I now know why I am here.
It’s because, I was the prince.
